The phone comes along on the walk, and somehow the walk becomes about the phone. This 14-minute walking meditation asks you to leave it behind, or at least pocketed and silent, and gives your attention something better to settle on. What you get back is the version of a walk that actually rests you.
Safety note: Keep your eyes open and stay aware of your surroundings. Your safety always comes first. Follow the audio only as far as it's safe to do so.
What you'll explore:
- What your attention does in the first few minutes without a screen to reach for.
- How the urge to check your phone rises and passes on its own if you let it.
- The kind of thinking that only shows up once the notifications stop.
How to get the most out of this walk:
- Leave the phone at home if you can, or stow it in a bag rather than a pocket.
- Pick a route you know by heart so you never need to check directions.
